cocoon/chrysalis 2012 (capsule)

Inspired by the concept ; 'The end of the beginning...'
Use of materials and techniques mimicked the three stages of behavioural & 'psychological' sates, during the birth of a butterfly...
First stage: innocent, hand knitting.
Second stage: confusion, exploration of potential, fusion of hand and machine knitting.
Third stage: gained experience, darker & prepared for the wild life, machine knitting.
Materials; raw alpaca yarn, cotton, silk, viscose, jersey, leather.
